The 7th Army NCO Academy mission is to train and develop future leaders who are adaptive, disciplined and ready to lead effectively at the squad and team levels. We inspire Soldiers to be creative problem-solvers, physically fit, resilient and grounded in Army Values and the Warrior Ethos.

At the NCO Academy in Grafenwoehr, Germany, we train U.S. and Multinational Soldiers using the Basic Leader Course curriculum from the Sergeants Major Academy. Our Academy is a 22-day branch-immaterial course, which includes four phases and 169 academic hours. We offer nine cycles per year, averaging 256-324 students per course.
